NovelFinishChapter 334 "But don't be too hard on yourself. Your physique is definitely leagues above those bargain bin rejects. I reckon even at a da pop, readers might give it a thought." Tarquin glared at her, a glare so icy it could freeze someone solid.
Elysia shrank back a bit, "You should be grateful; I'm trying to comfort you here." "So I'm supposed to thank you for that?!" His words cout strained, squeezed through clenched teeth.
Elysia's lips trembled, "No need!" "Ding ding ding." Elysia's phone rang; it was Elliot.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe little ones were worried about her, fearing their goofy dad might have flipped and upset her again, so they called to check in.
Elysia quickly stepped aside to answer, "Hello, Elliot." "Mommy, what are you up to?" "I... I'm talking with Elijah's dad." "Oh, we're with Elijah right now. Don't worry about us; he hasn't caught onto our secret.
And don't worry about not being able to see Elijah in the future. Elijah's dad was just scared you'd fight over custody, so he spoke in anger. We've explained it to him, and he's realized his mistake and said he'd apologize to you." Hearing this, Elysia felt a wave of relief. Tarquin hadn't recognized the kids, which was good news! And the possibility of seeing Elijah again was also good news! But an apology? That hadn't happened.
He'd been nitpicking non-stop! But it didn't matter; she wasn't exactly holding her breath for his apology! "Blossom is probably on her way to pick you guys up. Go hwith Blossom, and I'll cback later too." "Mhm." After hanging up, Elysia placed her phone over her heart, taking several deep breaths to calm her nerves. As long as the kids were okay, she was okay! The past was the past; she hadn't thought about revenge or rekindling anything. She just wanted to live a quiet life with her kids. So, even confirming his identity was no big deal! Sure, finding out he was that wild man had initially stirred emotions, but now, after their argument, she felt the anger dissipate.
Her discovering his identity was one thing; as long as he didn't find out hers and the kids', all was well! Elysia calmed down, exhaling deeply.
She tucked away her phone, ready to bid farewell and leave, but just as she turned, she nearly jumped out of her skin at Tarquin standing right behind her - like a towering specter, scaring someone half to death! "What on earth?! You could scare someone to death, you know?!" Elysia complained.
Tarquin's face was a storm cloud as he bore down on her, an ominous presence.
"I'm asking you one last time, do you really not know Elijah's mother?" "I don't! I really don't know her!" "...So you've been strippingfor photos just to make money?" Elysia's lips quivered, not as bold as before, "...Yes." After all, she truly didn't know Elijah's mother; she wasn't lying.

Tarquin's gaze was terrifying, prompting her to blurt out in a bid to fortify her courage, The content is on e novelenglish.net!
"We could partner up; you strip, I shoot. A da shot, profits split e fifty fifty. Tarquin's facial muscles twitched with rage, "Get lost!" Elysia felt her eardrums might burst from his roar, "You..." "GET OUT-"
His bellow sent her scurrying away, ก not daring to utter another word sidestepping him and bolting! She didn't look back, as if a tidal wave or a beast were on her heels! After Elysia left, Tarquin stood alone in the gazebo, lighting up a cigarette.
